Ettelbruck Squash Open 2013
Friday 1st & Saturday 2nd February 2013
Ettelbruck (Luxembourg) Hall du Deich |
Le vendredi 1 et samedi 2 février, la 13ème édition de l’Open d’Ettelbruck a eu lieu au Hall sportif du Deich. 31 joueurs se sont battus dans 3 catégories différentes. Fait très rare pour un tel tournoi: aucun joueur a dû abandonner, et ainsi, tous les match prévus ont été joués! Chapeau pour Marc Heath pour avoir continué à jouer, malgré un “cut” proche de son oeil, qui a dû être soigné par notre médecin sur place! Merci Gérald!! Dans le tableau A, Marc Radley a su prendre sa revanche pour sa défaite contre Marcel Kramer en 2011: Marc s’impose en fait en 4 jeux, et gagne ainsi le tournoi!
